Applications of Thermoplastic Road Marking Paint
-
Road Markings:
Thermoplastic paint is commonly used for lane markings, pedestrian crossings, arrows, and symbols on highways, roads, and streets. It provides clear, visible markings that are essential for traffic management and safety.
-
Parking Lots:
It is also widely used in parking lots for line marking, directional arrows, and handicap spaces, where durability and visibility are key.
-
Runways and Airports:
Thermoplastic paint is used in airport runways and taxiways to mark runway boundaries, parking areas, and safety zones due to its durability and resistance to wear under heavy traffic.
-
Safety Markings:
It is also used for various safety markings in industrial environments, warehouses, and roadsides, such as warning lines, no-parking zones, and bicycle lanes.
- Construction and Application
- Construction Equipment: Commonly used equipment includes hot melt kettles and road marking machines. The hot melt kettle is used for heating, melting, and stirring the paint, while the road marking machine can coat the paint on the road surface to form various markings.
- Construction Process: First, carry out basic treatments such as cleaning, grinding, and degreasing on the road surface. Then, put the paint into the hot melt kettle and heat it to 180-220°C to make it in a molten and flowing state. Pour it into the insulated hopper of the marking machine, adjust the gap between the marking hopper and the ground, push the marking vehicle to draw the lines, and at the same time, automatically and evenly sprinkle the reflective glass beads.
- Application Scope: It is suitable for center lines, lane dividing lines, edge lines, guiding lines, pedestrian crossings, intersections, parking lots, etc., where there is a lot of vehicle wheel rolling. It has a good effect on both asphalt and cement road surfaces.
